REFLECTIONS IN CANDLELIGHT by SHELLEY WARING

You have an amazing hand in watercolour especially the detail you add in the flowers..I liked your still life with laces.. I wonder how you manage to do that in this medium. I love watercolours but am too scared to handle it... Thanks for liking my still life too..

This is really nice.What colours did you use for the candles

You have managed to capture the silveware so well. A beautiful painting.

A wonderful watercolour ! Full of difficulties but you have managed to paint it brilliantly.

very interesting composition and very well painted.

thankyou for all the lovely comments. candles are painted by laying a wash of cad yellow then whilst this is still wet add cad red from the bottom and push up in light strokes and then add a small amount of aliz crimson just at the bottom edge to give the candle some weight. try it out next time you are just playing with your paints.hope this helps.
